Although it never operated scheduled passenger flights, its contribution to the advancement of aviation was invaluable. It took its maiden flight on February 13, 1974, and played a pivotal role in the Concorde’s certification process. After retiring from service, it sat forgotten for years at Filton Airport, gradually falling into disrepair. Thanks to the dedication of aviation enthusiasts, it was rescued and restored, eventually finding its permanent home at the Brooklands Museum, where it can be admired to this day.
